Arc Context Menu Items in Detail

  • Change Orientation

  • Delete

  • Forbid

  • Invert Orientation within the Equivalence Class

  • Properties

  • Structural Prior

  • Temporal Relation

  • Change Orientation (modeling mode): Inverts the arc. The probabilistic data associated with the two nodes are lost.

  • Invert Orientation within the Equivalence Class (validation mode): Inverts the arcs only if the resulting graph makes it possible to encode the same probability law. The conditional probability tables of the implied nodes are automatically updated. These arc inversions are propagated to other arcs and edges to preserve the probability law.

  • Edge Orientation (validation mode): Assigns an orientation to an arc for which the orientation was previously removed. See edges display.

  • Temporal Relation (any mode): Defines the arc as a temporal arc, i.e., an arc with a particular semantic. The two linked nodes represent the same variable at two consecutive time steps. This functionality enables the definition of dynamic Bayesian networks.

  • Delete (modeling mode): Deletes the current arc and all the selected ones. The probabilistic data associated with the destination node is lost.

Properties

  • Color:
    • Edit (any mode): Allows associating a color tag to the arc and all selected arcs.
    • Remove (any mode): Removes the color tagging of the arc and all selected arcs.
  • Fix (any mode): Marks the arc as prior knowledge for the Taboo learning algorithm and edge orientation context.
  • Comment:
    • Edit (any mode): Allows editing the comment of the arc.
    • Remove (any mode): Removes the comment of the arc and all selected arcs. If classes are associated with these arcs, images can be removed for all arcs of the selected classes.
